Features

Converts Factory "H" Pipe to an "X" Pipe

Improves Exhaust Flow and Sound

409 Stainless Steel construction

Cut and Clamp Design

Reuses Stock Catalytic Converters

Description

Improves Exhaust Flow. Ford actually did a nice job on the S197 Catalytic Converters, but the stock H-pipe could use some improvement. That's where the Ford Racing Cut and Clamp X-Pipe comes into play. Designed to balance out the exhaust gas pressure in your system, this X-pipe will help improve exhaust flow for more power and sound.

frpp xpipe

this x-pipe is great. makes a very noticable change in tone and volume of the exhaust. install is kinda hard. cutting the pipe is a pain if you are doing this using jack stands. and getting the new pipe to slide over the old pipe can be hard since not all bends on either pipe are exact. but once its on it is the sound makes it worth the minimal cost of time and part

less burble - more snarl

The X-pipe was an easy install. I do notice that the vehicle is more quiet at idle but has a more snarl in the exhaust note when getting on it. I don't notice a performance change in driving it based on seat-of-the-pants feel. Highly recommend to anyone due to ease of installation.

This cut and clamp is designed to reuse your stock catalytic converters. To get an idea on how these install, check out this link for complete instructions: http://1.cdn.lib.americanmuscle.com/files/50155.pdf
Hope this helps!

A bit of a PITA to install. Best to mark the head pipes and cut them on the car. Then remove them to install the X on the floor. The angles make getting it on a real challenge unless they are removed. The clamps are first rate as is the construction of the pipe. Changed the exhaust note quite a bit.
Bottom line......do it!

This is a good product to free up exhaust flow and get rid of that stock H Pipe. I can not say that it made any real difference in HP or throttle response as opposed to the stock. My main reason for the purchase was to see if it would help tone down some cabin noise in our '06 Conv we have had since installing the Borla Stinger mufflers. NO, it made no noticeable difference at all.
So depending on why you are considering this purchase for-
That $125 bucks would probably go better towards a full catted or off road X Pipe (depending on your prefrence) if you are looking to really free up exhaust flow;
OR put it towards a more subtle muffler like Borla Touring or FR Bullitt if the Stinger mufflers were more than you wanted (having regreted the purchase after installing them and going deaf after a ride down the interstate).
**Live and learn- or learn from my trial & error.
The team at AM were helpful- the X pipe arrived in a timely manner, and the pipes were installed by a local shop.
I hope this review was helpful.

I never quite understood the rational of switching from H pipes to X pipes, but enough people I trust said it was worth it, and they were right. Everyone has different setups, so improvements I'm sure will vary, but when I pulled off the line right after these were installed, my tires screeched with just a touch of the accelerator. The products in the box are top quality, and it looked like a very simple installation. But as I get older (lazier) I like less and less to crawl under a car, so I had a professional install them. It cost me $50 and took less than 30 minutes. So, for a cost of under $200, I have a great product, more acceleration, and a smoother sounding exhaust. I have absolutely no complaints.

I agree with the previous post. Once you get it to fit over the original pipe it is best to hit it with a hammer and block of wood to get it tight. Cutting the old H pipe off was easy with a reciprocating saw, metal cutting blade and some WD-40. Measure twice and cut once. The clamps are 1st class. A lift would be nice as well if your a big guy.

I bought this pipe because I wanted to step up my exhaust, but I wanted to stay with Ford Racing parts.
The install is simple, but annoying because there's not a lot of room to work with the car on jack stands. A saws-all cuts through the pipes like butter. The X is a tight fit over the existing pipes, but stay with it, it'll go. Once it's all bolted up, it looks clean; pretty much stock.
I have an 09 Bullitt which come with a washer welded in the middle of the stock H, in order to obtain the sound from the movie. Basically, the stock H on an 08/09 Bullitt only has about a 1/2" hole inside.
The sound is a bit quieter, but the car is also a bit faster. It feels like it may have lost a little on the bottom, but it definitely has more power in the upper RPMs.
I bought a set of FRPP shorties as well, and I will be installing them this weekend. I'll post a review on those as well, but I'm expecting them to deepen the tone and really work well with this X.

Word on The Street

It is not often that aftermarket accessories live up to their claims - but this Tuner is amazing. This Tuner unleashed a Beast that lives under the hood of my 2001 SVT Cobra. Thank you and I would recommend that anyone who is on the fence about making this purchase... Go for it - you will never realize such a huge increase in HP & Torque for less than 400 bucks! Well, Well Worth every penny. And the free tunes for life is just a bonus.
